More than 60,000 comic lovers, fans attend 10th year of Montreal Comiccon

WATCH ABOVE: Montreal Comiccon celebrated its 10th anniversary over the weekend. Elysia Bryan-Baynes lists her top 10 honouring the star-studded affair that ritually brings fans, local talent and even caped crusaders together for one special weekend at Montreal’s Palais des congrès.

Mamoa, Aquaman and Game of Thrones star, was just one of a long list of celebrities that attended this year’s event.

Chuck Norris, David Duchovny, Ben McKenzie, John Barrowman, Morena Baccarin, Doug Jones, Val Kilmer, Sonequa Martin-Green, Catherine Tate, and many more were in attendance, including the prolific and funny Danny Trejo, and the prolific and charming Julian Glover.

“I’ve been so lucky to have been in all these franchises,” said Glover, star of Star Wars, Game of Thrones, Dr. Who, Indiana Jones, James Bond, and Harry Potter.

“I’ve been in 170 films, some of them students’ films,” he said, smiling. “I do a lot of work with people who are on the way up. I think it is part of our duty, really. If you’ve got something to give, to not just sit at home and be conceited.”

Theatre is his real love, but Glover says conventions like Montreal’s allow for “great conversations.”
